Novak raced from 2-5 to 5-5 in the 1st set by broking Agassi when he was serving for the set at 5-3 :D

Looks like an other weakest link is doing pretty good.

To be honest I thought AA would win this match pretty easy....

All of the players now know a couple of different ways to beat Agassi. Main thing is to make him move and don't let him dictate. Also force him to hit some deep slices. Serve him out wide.

martinatreue

11-13-2002, 12:07 PM

40-0 for Jiri 'a'-train self-destructing!!!!

7-5, 5-1

jindrich

11-13-2002, 12:20 PM

Congratulations Jiri! :D What a win!
22 winners and 10 unforced errors, not bad at all :)

Good luck in the rest of the tournament!

Chloe le Bopper

11-13-2002, 12:23 PM

Well I'm 1-1 for predictions, (Jiri-Costa) - so I should stop too ;)

good idea, the predictions just works in the WTA world:p not in the "real world"

Come on Carles burn the court!:fiery:

martinatreue

11-13-2002, 12:28 PM

I just let the matches be played knowing that anything can happen. Anybody can go out and play a different strategy. It's tennis. Predictions don't mean a lot in many big matches. That's why I generally don't make bold blanket predictions cuz I can usually envision a way in which the underdog can still bother the favorite.

sometimes Andre really pisses me off...:mad: :mad: when did Jiri become an android??????

Chloe le Bopper

11-13-2002, 12:36 PM

Don't worry TC there is lots of time to him recover - after he plays Fed and Ferrero i'm hoping :D

martinatreue

11-13-2002, 12:39 PM

Federer has never beaten Agassi, has he? He should do like Jiri and come up with a different approach to Andre and send the A-train home. GO ROGI!!

Balaenopteramusculus

11-13-2002, 12:45 PM

Martinatreu I make predictions just for fun.I know that this don't make too much sense coz in tennis everythink is possible but in case of Costa I was almost sure that he won't win any match in this tourney.And I was punished.

11-13-2002, 01:14 PM

:) Anything is possible! Good for Novak for destroying the AA bald one! Now for Rogi and Juanqui to follow suit... get rid of him!!! But Novak that's all you get!! You did your job!! ;) Hope AA is well and truly rattled! [maybe he ate a serpentlike delicacy...]

TennisHack

11-13-2002, 01:23 PM

YES :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

The only thing I don't like about this match is the fact that Ferrero has to play him next . . . I hope he watches this tape very, very carefully.

:D

:) Hackie

I'm sure Juanqui, after his loss to Rogi, will be determined to play his game, as at RG02, and beat that Baldy man!!! He can't lose!! Have faith in your skinny Mosquito!! He's adding more variety in his game these days... has to be good!!! Juanqui dropshotting -- I'm impressed!! Muy bien, el nino! ;)

Eurosport is replaying the match Agassi vs Novak

Funny, how the commentators are saying that Novak has NO weapons to beat Agassi and how he has to hang in the match :D :D
